Sold: Anyone interested in used 18X8.5 Lorinser LM5 replicas for cheap?

Hi Folks,

I have 4 Lorinser LM5 style rims for sale. These are replicas. They came off of my 2002 C320. A few of the rims have curb marks. I will email pictures if you email me. I am asking $400 for all 4. Local pickup only. These rims still have tires on them but they all need to be replaced. I have had these rims off my car and sitting in my garage for the last 2 years and for some reason, the tires (AVON brand) looks like they bubbled. The thread on the two fronts are still at like 80% but I still recommend replacing them with better tires. I am in the Arcadia, CA 91006 area.

Forgot to mention that the offset is 35mm.

Thanks,

John

more pics

Here are more pics. The two rear tires are going bald but the fronts still have thread. There may be bubbling on the sidewall so I still recommend all 4 tires be changed.

I also noticed that there are insect marks on some of the rims. It seems like some insects, probably crickets dined on the clearcoat of the rims. I included pics of that also.

Thanks again,

John

bubbles

Hi Danny,

I will try to take pictures of the bubbles but they are very subtle. Hope that the camera could render them accurately. The two rear tires are bald and needs to be replaced. The two front tires has a lot of tread left but may have bubbles on the sidewall. At the very least, they need to be rebalance but I would highly recommend that all 4 tires be trashed. They are probably unsafe and I would personally not use them on my car. If you want to see them, you are welcome to swing by. What's your schedule like tomorrow or tonight? I won't be home until probably 9pm tonight. Maybe it would be easier to see if you were to see them when there is light out and not at night. My garage light isn't too bright.

Thanks,

John

Here's a picture of what I think is the bubble

I was only able to detect one of these. The other front tire seems to be free of bubbles. I ran my fingers over the sidewall to check also.

The picture is of the single bubble taken at different angles. It is super subtle so just look for irregular lines.
